研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of teriparatide on skeleton images in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. Teriparatide is a bone formation agent that stimulates the production of new bone in the skeleton. This process of bone formation can be studied using a technique commonly referred to as a bone scan or nuclear scintigraphy. This trial will test whether bone scans will identify areas of the skeleton that are forming new bone during teriparatide therapy. It also will study what these areas look like after therapy is stopped.

干预措施: teriparatide (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in Whole Skeleton Skeletal Plasma Clearance of 99m Technetium Methylene Diphosphonate (99m Tc-MDP) to 18 Months
时间窗: baseline, 18 months
Skeletal plasma clearance is defined as the volume of plasma cleared of tracer (99m Tc-MDP) by the skeleton per unit time (milliliter/minute). Kbone is the rate constant representing plasma clearance of tracer to bone. The Patlak plot method was used to evaluate whole skeleton 99mTc-MDP skeletal plasma clearance (Kbone).
次要结局
- Change in Skeletal Plasma Clearance of 99m Technetium Methylene Diphosphonate (99m Tc-MDP) in the Whole Skeleton, Skull, Mandible, Spine, Pelvis, Upper Extremities, and Lower Extremities(Baseline, 3 months, 18 months, 24 months)
- Change in Skeletal Uptake of 99m Technetium Methylene Diphosphonate (99m Tc-MDP) in the Whole Skeleton, Skull, Mandible, Spine, Pelvis, Upper Extremities, and Lower Extremities(Baseline, 3 months, 18 months, 24 months)
- Change in Qualitative Visual Scores of Focal Uptake of 99m Technetium Methylene Diphosphonate (99m Tc-MDP) in the Whole Skeleton(Baseline, 3 months, 18 months, 24 months)
- Number of Participants With Changes in Diffuse Uptake of 99m Tc-MDP - Qualitative Visual Assessment in the Whole Skeleton(baseline, 3 months, 18 months, 24 months)
